  1. Joining Process

Payuran family is my neighbor; as a matter of fact her oldest brother is one of my best friends.  I asked Kenneth if Katherine Anne could be my client and she agreed.  Then I also asked permission to their parents if it is okay and they allowed me to do so. 
Due to my need to have client I looked for her no one referred her to me.

  1. Presenting Problems


Her mother told me that Katherine Anne is a bossy child, she easily cries if she can’t have what she wants.  She said that Katherine always makes fight with boys.  She is also hyperactive and always wants to play outside.  She said that Katherine always put her fingers in her mouth whenever she watches TV.

D.2

NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION
          Katherine’s relationship with her mother, father, lola Flory,lola Teresita and her brother Kennethis quite good because according to them they are giving what Katherine wants. They support her on every thing she does.  In contrast, the other members of the family is not that good as the others because according to them; they are having quarrel and fights when Katherine really misbehave or sometimes they are the ones who start making her feel mad. 
     D.3 

These children are her classmates who affect her everyday life in school.  That child who has straight line is her good friends; they have a good relationship with each other; according to their teacher the thing they like and dislikes are the same.  In contrast the other children make her feel mad almost every day because according to her they always try to bully her.
     D.4 SELF-MASTERY
According to her mother the child can write her full name, the alphabet and numbers 1-20.  She can also determine different colors.  She can perform mathematical operation like addition and subtraction. She can also draw a little.  She can speak well.  She can also sing a song.  She identifies the different TV programs.  She can take a bath by herself.
The child can’t read.  She can’t change her own clothes.  She can’t eat without the guidance of adults. 

      D.5 Quality Relationship
          I interviewed her peers about their relation with Katherine Anne; they said that Katherine is a cheerful friend and very energetic, but then when she gets mad no one can stop her to start fight.
            According to her teacher, Katherine is a smart pupil she can easily catch the lesson.  But she observed that sometimes Katherine feels anxious in school, she tends to cry when she can’t finish her activities.

       D.6 Action
            At school, Katherine can easily memorize songs and nursery rhymes.  She is also capable of socializing with other children.  She is a good follower to her teacher.
            At home, Katherine can help her mother to do simple house chores like folding clothes, clean the table after eating, and keep her toys after playing.  She knows when to turn off and on the TV.  She keeps on saying, “matalino kaya ako di lang ako marunong  magbasa.” 

     E. THERAPUETIC FRAMEWORK

F.    PROGNOSIS
Based on my observation the client is very bossy to others.  Like what her parents observe about her.  She tends to like those people who are giving her favor or those who are following what she wants.  And because she usually gets things she wants she develop the superiority complex; which she brings to the other environment.  The reason why she always has fights with boys is that she’s not letting them to take over her power to lead “or “to be the boss.”  The children who she belongs with are those children who are just following her commands; though these children like to follow her.  She doesn’t have patient on doing things.  Sometimes let others to do things for her.
G.     THERAPUETIC PLANS
In this case the child gets what she wants.  One factor is that she is the youngest in the family so most of the members try their best to give her necessity and needs.
G1.   KNOWLEDGE BUILDING
At the end of the case the client child should beware of the feelings of others.
G2. SKILL BUILDING
At the end of the case the client child should learn her communication skills (particularly listening) with other most especially to her opposite sex.
G3. ATTITUDE BUILDING
At the end of the case the client child should be aware of her limitation about asking things or doing things.
H.
I.

            J. THERAPUETIC RESULT
The child could adjust to her peer group about being aware on others feeling and her communication skill.  Though it still needs follow-up activities, she showed room for changing his attitude toward her community.  But then her superiority complex in their house is difficult to change and develop.  It really needs a long process of training so that she can adopt the positive attitude.
            K. SUMMARY
A 5 yr. old child namely Katherine Anne is the youngest member of their family.  She is studying at Rexane Academy and in kindergarten level.  Due to reason that she’s the youngest daughter most of the time what she wants, what she gets.  By pampering that attitude by the other members of the family she accidentally develops an attitude of what we so called “superiority complex.” She tends to be bossy not only inside their house but she brings these attitudes to school and playmates.
         CONCLUSION
I therefore conclude that a growing child can develop her attitude easily when she gets used to it.  As we all know every things starts at home and if hat attitude is being tolerated by other people around you, it would be so easy to adopt and develop but difficult to change.
           L. IMPLICATION
In this case the child is being over-pampered by the other people around her that cause her to have   maladaptive behavior.  But then, she still acquires learning in such a good way.  In Assessment of Education her maladaptive behavior doesn’t really affect the way she adopts knowledge; that is the positive effect of a supportive family setting.
